large Claim.

CHICAGO, March 9.-The Times says the
revival Of what is known as the Beale Claim
to about seventy million acres of land in
what is called the panhandle district"
embraced in Texas, New Mexico and Color
ado, has occaaioped little talk ia the city
because of the interest of IA potion of the
territory mentioned, owned by Mr.. c. H.
Farwell aud associates, who received three
million acres from the State of Texas for
erecting the capitol buildings. Mr.. Farwell
stated to reporter that the alleged claim
ants to this land had not The slightest foun-
dation for asserting title 10 The property,
there never having been any grant from
the Mexican government to Beale for
the land Said Mr. Farw ell: "This
man, 3. G. Jayne, who is engineer
ing the scheme for tho syndicate, year ago
offered to quit claim to US his alleged in
terest IN the three million acres embraced
in our grant from the State of Texas for the
sum of $4,000, or one half cont an acre.
He was willing to do this to quiet our title.
But as our title was clear, fres aud unim-
numbered, we firmly informed him We
would have nothing TO do with his Offer,
since which time we have not been troubled
with him or his claim. There is not the
slightest foundation for o legitimate claim TO
the property mentioned, and the records of
the Interior Department are full and ex-
plicit upon the point"

Mr. Peake.-"It is only four inch pipe

Mr. Snowden asked if this letter hed evti
been before the committee.
Mr.. Peake said it had never been.
President Eichberg explained that he had
! been surprised some time ago to see that the
water from the lot north ofthe engine house
drained through the city lot, and he then
suggested that remedy should be at once
applied.
Motions were made to refer 10 the Corpor-
alton Attorney, to the Committee en- Gen
eral Laws and to the Committee on Public
Property
Mr. Corbett asked when this building was
constructed.
Mr.. Peake-'I think it was in 1882"
Mr. Corbett thought that the roof had
worn off very scon.
1t was stated thai it was the roof of the
back Annex that leaked 1t had never been
painted, for application to Council to have
it painted had been disregarded.
The subject was referred to the Commit
tee on Public Property with instructions to
give the necessary notices to have the flow
of water carried properly from the engine
house yard.
Council then recessed for some time to
await business from the Board of Aldermen,
and after considerable business without de-
bate the board adjourned
JOINT MEETING.
The Boards gathered in Joint convention
to elect Chief Engineer Of the Fire De-
partment, and no nomination for that Office
having been made except that of Mr.. J. Car
lin Creighton, the President Of the Board Of
Aldermen was instructed to Cast the unani-
nous ballot of the Board for Mr.. Creighton.
Alderman Strauss suggested that it would
be premature to elect successor of Chief
Engineer O'Brien until his resignation <had
been accepted by both boards. The resig-
nation had not yet been communicated to
the Board of Aldermen.
II was stated that no time had been al
lowed the Clerk to endos,e and send in the
resignation after its acceptance by the Coun-
Gil.
The ballot was then taken and Mr.. J. c.
Creighton was chosen unanimously.
The election of Warden Creighton made
vacancy in the Board of Wardens, and the
election Of a new Warden was ordered
The names Of Messrs. j. n. D. Smoot and
George Wise were put in nomination.
On the first ballot the vote stood: Smoot
10, Wise 10; second ballot, Smoot -, Wise
s; third ballot, Smuot II. Wise 8; fourth
ballot, Smoot H. Wise 6. So Mr.. Smoot

Agricultural Experiment station.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-The agricultur
al colleges the land over are flying their
flags and people who are especially inter-
ested in them are rejoicing in consequence
of the passage of The experiment station bill;
but question has arisen which would APP
pear to indicate that the demonstrations are
premature. The fifth section of the bill,
the only one relating 10 appropriations, says
"the sum of SIS 900 is hereby appropriated
to each State to be specially provided for by
Congress in the appropriations from year to
year from the sales Of public lands, the first
payment to be made on the first day of
October 1887" This singular phraseology
has been held to be an appropriation clause
but a close inspe ction of it has given rise to
doubts, weight of unofficial opinion being
thet no money is appropriated. If this is
sustained by the authorities the beginning
of the nsw work will be delayed until Con-
gress acts further,

Rev. Davis was driven from the church, es-
Gaping by window. The Mormon chair

Selling chair slashed around wildly, knock

abuse of his opponent amid the remon.
strances of the men and women present.
His language became go brutal and threat
